The 2013 Audi Q5 requires either 0w-40, 0w-30, 5w-40, or 5w-30 oil with a capacity of 5 quarts. Using high-quality oil is crucial for optimal engine performance. Using subpar oil can lead to engine malfunctions and issues such as a burning smell, which should be addressed promptly to avoid potential explosions. Engine knocking noises and poor gas mileage can also result from bad oil. It's recommended to change the oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles to prevent engine problems. Skipping oil changes can cause serious engine issues.
The 2013 Audi Q5 requires 4.9 US quarts (4.6 liters) of oil for the 2.0L engine and 7.2 US quarts (6.8 liters) for the 3.0L engine. Audi recommends using high-quality SAE 0W-40, 0W-30, 5W-40, or 5W-30 oil that carries the API Certification Seal for optimal performance in the 2013 Audi Q5.
